Moose on the Porch Quilts!

My name is Konda Luckau. I have been long arm quilting for many years, and now I am writing pattern books. This started when I fell in love with charm packs a few years ago. I am sure many of you can relate. Most of my patterns are written for charm squares (except you can make your own charm squares out of layer cakes, fat quarters, yardage, or scraps). Check out my books at my website:

I found out about this about 2 weeks ago, and decided to jump in, even though I am joining really late. So far, the blocks haven't been too difficult and I am LOVING how they are turning out! This is the perfect way to use a Jelly Roll, and I would love it if you did another one in the future!

I have made all but the last two. As soon as I get back from vacation, I will finish, set the blocks and send it off to the quilter! I love it. I used Basic Grey Fruitcake and can't wait to have a holiday quilt!

I'm participating, but got a very late start just a few days ago. However, it's taking me longer to choose the fabrics from my scrappy jelly roll than it does to whip the blocks together. Eight blocks completed, with just four to go. I haven't a clue yet about how I'm going to unify all of my blocks into one quilt, but it will be a fun challenge. I'm open to any suggestions.

I have been playing along from the start, have gotten 2 of my friends involved too. We have enjoyed it immensely! Posting on the flicker site was a great idea, can't wait to see everyone's quilts put together.

I have made all the blocks and they are also all 12 on the flickr group (plakhuis). Those blocks with these awfull light colors. I somethimes even did not the for or bagside of the fabric. But I was intnet to finish it so I do. But because I like the blocks very much I think I make it again in more colorfull fabric. Thanks for all who have designed the blocks and thank you for set this project up!!! Can not wait for tomorrow!

Great;I have enjoyed this JR- project. It has been a good challenge. I have all but #12 done. Soon back from a holiday,so another picture of the last 3 blocks to be posted. My Moda Prairie Paisley roll is an old one, glad to have been able to use it. Looking forward to finishing the quilt! Also interesting to have read about all the designers of each block I have made. Thanking you ever so much for arranging it all:-)

I have made one block, but have saved the instructions for all. I will work on them as my next project. Love the variety. Next time I will stop my regular project to make one block along with everyone else.

I have gotten so far behind, but I'm trying to catch up! I got scared when one of the blocks looked complicated and just fell off the quilt along wagon. It doesn't help that my jelly roll is pretty hideous, lol. But, I am making progress and will be posting the blocks as I finish them :)

I've been quilting along, but I don't have a blogsite and haven't posted any pictures. I've enjoyed the quilt along tremendously. Thanks for the great block patterns and fun!! I'm loving how this quilt will turn out!

I have been following along and have all the directions but have yet to make but one so far! I have so much going on it makes me mad but I love seeing all the others! Thank you so much for doing this as I love to follow blogs and this is a wonderful extra goody!

Thankyou for providing this quilt along. I have thoroughly enjoyed making the blocks and can't wait to see the suggested layouts we might use. It was good to see what you could do with a jelly roll and a bit of yardage. Thanks again to you and to all the designers who provided the additional blocks.

I've made 8 and will be finishing up the last 4 by the weekend. This quilt along as been my introduction to working with pre-cuts and I have really enjoyed it. Some blocks I didn't think I care for much, have become my favorites. thanks for hosting! :)

Thanks for this quilt along. It has been the one thing that has made this summer bearable. through a broken arm and 80 hour work weeks, I have looked forward to this with every new block posted. Hope you do this again. Thanks Lynn

I have done all the blocks and can't wait to put it together. I love the idea of using a jelly roll to make a quilt, and look forward to seeing what you have planned next. The blocks have been posted on my blog.

I love the project. Each block was great and so different. I have a few more to complete. Life got complicated half way through the QAL. I love the time between, 2 weeks was good. I put a reminder on my calendar each week to look forward to the next block. I hope to have all blocks completed by the end of the month. Add some sashing, and A great quilt. I feel a kinship with all those were making and sharing their blocks along the way. Thanks for all your hard work.

I have made the first two blocks because starting Sept I am sharing your block instructions with my quilt club. We will be making two blocks each month. I think it will be a lot of fun since most of us don't have blogs or flicker accounts. So we will be doing what you have been doing except in person. I'm guessing about 15 people will participate.Thanks for the fun quiltalong. Mary Jo

This comment is for my Mom, Roberta, who has been sewing along with me. She made her own jelly roll from fabrics on hand and I think I only "made" her rip out a couple of blocks (all for the betterment of the quilt - i say with guilt)

I still need to make block #12 and then I can do the finishing. I have given two of these months to my sewing group for our Pizza Box Project. There are 20 sewers in my group...It's been fun doing this!

I have made 9 blocks so far but had to stop due to moving but have thoroughly enjoyed this quilt a long and hope to do more. Very informative and fun to do. You hae done a great job and I am anxious to see what else you do. Keep up the great work!!

I loved doing this so much that I'm doing 2 different colorwaves...I'm all caught up with both and all are posted. Will start putting everything together next week, hopefully will get both tops done to post on time. Thanks to all who contributed and to all your hard work putting this all together. I would like to participate in whatever you have coming up next. If it's scrappy--great! If it's another jellyroll, I have the perfect one, thanks to your generosity when I was a block winner. Keep up the great work!

This is the first quilt along I have done. It has been a lot of fun. I have 11 blocks done & will finish #12 this weekend. Now all I have to do is get the sashing & border material to finish. Thanks for hosting this and I'm looking forward to your next project.

i just need to make #12 (i've been on a quilting frenzy on my other project so haven't started on it yet)--this whole quiltalong has been so much fun! it's my first one--i was hesitant 'cos some of the other quilt-alongs seem so time consuming--this one was just perfect for me. thanks so much for organizing it!!

I have had such a blast doing this quilt along! I am about to make the last square today. I have been teaching a sewing class and I am going to start having them learn the sampler blocks to have them start learning about quilting. thanks a bunch for the fun!!!

I have been making all the blocks except from the last three, becacuse I have been om vacation. So I will make them in a short while. I have really enjoyed this quilt-along, and the patterns are great!

Thanks Moose Quilts for a fun project. I will finish up the quilt when I come home from the my family reunion. I have never done a Mystery quilt and I loved this! I will be looking for others to do in the future... Actually, until this I have never used a Jelly Roll before! So thanks for the "winning" prize this week and I look forward to visiting the site often!

I've been quilting along, too, from my stash as nice jelly rolls aren't that easy to find here in Australia. I substituted a couple of the blocks for others that I wanted to try. I like to think of that as creative, rather than non-compliant :-)

I made them ALL...just finished this weekend...out of the Fall Back in Time jellyroll. It was great fun. Although samplers are not my thing usually, I learned some great skills and made some awesome blocks. Thanx for all the work you did!

I have made 4 blocks. My husband became quite ill the end of April. I would like to start in again. Is it too late? May I print the instructions for layout without the buttons on the side of the page? Thanks for the inspiration and opportunity to make something beautiful.

Thank you so much for a fun SAL! I've really enjoyed seeing all the different fabric variations. The blocks were not too complicated and the directions were clear and well documented. I've made all 12 blocks and have even pieced together the top. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned next!

Thank you so much for hosting the quitl along. I really enjoyed making the Jelly Roll blocks. I finished my quilt and I posted it on flicker. I used the Decadent Victorian by April Cornell and I just love the soft colors. It will be a nice lap quilt for the winter months here in Nova Scotia Canada.Merci!

Dianne from Brisbane in Queensland Australia just wanted to say a big thankyou for doing such a great job with this quilt along. 12 different blocks and a chance to look at other designers too. I don't have my own blog and haven't posted any pictures but I've done all the blocks and wanted to let you know that TWELVE avid quilters have joined in the fun from the start and most are close to a finish. Some used jelly rolls, others japanese fabrics. Thanks to everyone who did post on the flickr site as that was good for inspiration. One day I might be better at the computer and be able to show pictures. Just wanted to say thanks and let you know 12 of us played along and spent our patchwork mornings busily picking fabrics and making the lovely blocks each fortnight.

This has been a great project! I trully enjoyed it; but did get behind a bit this summer. Am now working on the last few blocks...hoping to get my top posted for the final drawing on Aug. 30. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity; and it was nice to see other's blocks along the way.This was my first ever jelly roll project too!

I've done all the blocks and have thoroughly enjoyed sewing along. I was really interested in all the color ways everyone was making. Do hope you plan to do another sew along again. Nice to use up a jelly roll.

I made all 12 blocks and I loved the quilt along. It kept me focused and it was easy to do one every 2 weeks. Loved not having to wait a whole month for the next one. Would definitely participate in another one!
